We're getting closer to the end of an era with Pat Sajak as the host of Wheel Of Fortune. As that date gets near, we are puzzled by Bill's thought to find a Wheel of Fortune recipe through AI. 

The incomparable CeCe Winans was a part of the festivities on the finale of American Idol. Dave and Carmen finally got a chance to see her performance of Goodness of God with Roman Collins and Carmen loved it so much she watched if 5 times! 

Bill shared some findings from some studies on loneliness and it got us to thinking as to why moms, in particular, are fighting the lonesome thoughts. Could it have to do with comparing ourselves to others via social media? 

Elvis is one of those artists that is beyond comparison and his eclectic style is on display at Graceland. But will Graceland continue to be a part of the Presley family much longer? 

There's nothing like placing an order for food only to realize it is headed to the wrong location! Dave found that out firsthand yesterday~ 

Bill can't compare Apple products to any others and would go to extreme lengths to recover a swallowed air pod like one man in Taiwan did. 

If you are looking to supplement your workout with the right foods, you can compare your results with the findings that Bill shared on some of the benefits of certain foods combined with your workout. 

The Tesla CyberTruck is beyond compare. But the issues that have caused a recall and the looks of the vehicle have some not wanting to fork over the money for the unique automobile.

51:02 Bill's BIG Word

It's been awhile since the contestants of American Idol got their golden tickets but we need to wait a little while longer to discuss the finale of this season. 

The PGA Championship happened in Louisville over the weekend and it was a hot ticket as Xander Schauffele won a major tournament for the first time in his career. But the bigger news from the weekend was the arrest of Scottie Scheffler. He got more than a ticket for a traffic violation. 

Dave shared how his dad had wanted him to learn the game of golf.

Bill shared in his own way how The Word can be "just the ticket" as medicine for your soul. 

Tauren Wells has been in preacher mode lately with the launch of his church and a lot of baptisms this past weekend. He's also in "preacher mode" with his new song. 

A fan has been just the ticket for a good night's sleep for Carmen. But now she's wondering about white noise and brown noise and all the other colors of the noise spectrum. 

On Friday, Carmen heard a new song from Blessing Offor and Dolly Parton that was "just the ticket" and she loved it so much she wanted to hear it twice. 

For any parent with a child graduating, Matthew West's song, 18 Summers, is 'just the ticket'. 

After a long day on Friday, Carmen was on the way home and made a turn that ended up with her getting a traffic ticket. 

If you were hoping to get a ticket to see Pat Sajak on Wheel of Fortune, you've missed your chance as he has already taped his last episode that will air June 7th.

41:36 Bill's BIG Word 

Before the week ended we wanted to ask Jules about her Mother's Day and it seems that her daughters might want to try again with their gift giving. And Jules had an experience that she doesn't want to try again when she split her pants in public. 

Bill is back after a couple of days being under the weather and he wanted to hear all about Carmen and Katy Nichole trying the coffee and OJ combination and whether or not they would try it again. 

Planning your summer vacation? Dave has a list of the top travel destinations and many of our listening areas have made the Top 100. 

Bill thinks of himself as a light packer but he may want to try again. 

Carmen shared a thought from Ashley Morgan Jackson on letting go and Dave asked her to share it again because it brought him to the story of Abraham and Isaac. 

After trying the Iced Coffee and OJ mixture, Dave would not try it again but Bill certainly would. But no one would try the concoction he came up with while trying to clean up. 

Buying a home in Florida can be a tough job but you may want to try again as home prices are falling. 

And Bill will try once again to have the yard of the month after seeing the work that his neighbor has put in.

Katy Nichole has been navigating new waters as a Christian artist the last few years and we were lucky enough to have her join Dave and Carmen today to get to know her and her music. 

Before she came in, Dave told us that CeCe Winans will be part of the American Idol show this weekend. 

Dave also shared the good news that Emilie has completed her last round of chemo yesterday and got to ring the bell. But she is still dealing with shingles. 

Carmen told us how glamping is on the rise which is something she could try. But as far as hiking is concerned, there's a little confusion. 

Walking around Disney's new Tiana's Bayou Adventure, you may smell something different as they bring the smell of a New Orleans favorite to the ride. 

Katy Nichole didn't grow up listening to Christian music but she eventually found her way to the stages at church and writing songs that deal with faith while having multiple surgeries and dealing with chronic pain. 

We got to know her more this morning along with her music, her love for Stanley tumblers and navigating social media.

Bill is a bit under the weather so out of an abundance of caution, we had Jayar come in today to fill in for him. And we learned a lot, even without the professorial Bill here! 

We learned that Jayar likes to drink a lot of water and that his back hurts from sleeping on a couch. 

Carmen learned for the first time ever how to play Rock Paper Scissors. Jayar learned what the word condone means. And Dave learned that the grammar rule of "i before e except after c" is false! 

Dave also shared some news about a collab between Dolly Parton and Krispy Kreme. 

With an upcoming birthday, Jayar is learning a lot about the doctor's appointments he's gonna need to make. 

Carmen learned that several Chili's locations around the country are closing and that got us wondering about the lifecycle of a restaurant. 

We also learned that Mike Weaver was once prayed over by a man who saw him performing music one day. 

And we are praying for Dave's wife today as she undergoes her last chemo treatment.

42:48 Jayar's BIG Word of the Day 

Today's show took us on quite the journey as we shared a conversation with Lauren Daigle, discussed another issue with a Boeing plane, Carmen got ready for a trip to Banff, Bill looked for truth with the Northern Lights and several staff members shared about their recent trip to the Dominican Republic. 

Travelling is part of the gig for Lauren Daigle, but she is a very nervous flyer. She shared some of the techniques she uses to calm those anxious thoughts with our own nervous flyer, Carmen. 

She also shared about a couple of new songs from her self-titled album and told us about the roots of her Foundation. 

Dave didn't do much to calm Carmen's fear of flying with yet another story of an issue with a Boeing plane. Carmen also had some realizations about her upcoming trip to Banff in Canada. 

Bill told us how some images of the Northern Lights were faked and then shared some thoughts on truth. 

For the last hour of the show, Jayar, Jake and Haley all shared about their experiences from The Jayar Show trip to the Dominican Republic.

It's been 16 long months, but today we were filled with JOY as the tower in Atlanta is back up and broadcasting high above the trees all over the ATL area. 

Before we got to that, Carmen shared how happy she was to have her A/C on high power after it went out late Friday night. She also shared about her Mother's Day. 

Ed, our coworker, was instrumental in getting the tower project completed. He joined us after we powered it up to share some behind the scenes and lessons he learned. 

We heard from many of you that not only recognized that it was high time we were "back to normal" with our Atlanta area signal but so appreciative as well. 

Bill spent some time traveling to St. Louis for a friend's seminary graduiation. The St. Louis arch which towers high above the city skyline as the Gateway to the West, was a sight that he had only seen in pictures before. Even on this trip he only saw it from the ground. He shared with us about his travel woes and some of the other sights he saw. 

Dave cut the cable because of the high prices. But now these streaming services are offering bundles that seem like it is cable TV all over again.

50:48 Bill's BIG Word 

Lots of things for you to consider on the show today. Bill didn't quite think through his BIG Word from yesterday. Dave had to point it out to him. 

If you are a fan of for King & Country, you'll want to consider getting your tickets to their show sooner rather than later. 

BIll shared some thoughts on David's biggest sin for you to consider when thinking about your own sins and relationship with God. 

How much caffeine do you consume on the daily? You may want to take that into consideration before pouring your next cup. 

While you are at it, you may want to consider the amount of vitamin D and sun exposure you are getting. 

Jules has been considering how to spend her summer now that her oldest daughter has a summer job. And she had to reconsider her testimony where she had to reword some things that aren't really true for her anymore. 

If you consider yourself a Wordle fan, you may want to check out their new archives feature. 

Carmen never really considered where exactly the Masters course is, but while visiting Augusta last weekend for a memorial service, she found the famed course in a surprising area. 

The next time you travel, you may want to consider checking the bed for bedbugs. 

And when you are traveling, you may want to consider some of the new house experiences available through AirBnB. 

Know someone who is flying and want to follow along? Consider this texting hack that Carmen told us about. 

Have you considered what to do for Mother's Day?

47:15 Bill's BIG Word

Carmen shared a text hack to help track flights that you're loved ones are on. She used it yesterday when several coworkers made their way back from the Dominican Republic. 

Bill has a track record for sharing bad jokes. He continued on that track this morning. 

Apple's track record may be tarnished after an ad for their new iPad has received some negative feedback. 

Some kids in Dave's neighborhood have a track record of misbehaving and it impacted his dinner last night. 

Matthew West was on his way to the recording studio when his car went off track and hydroplaned into a median barrier. He shared the story on Instagram and is recovering well especially with how he ended the video and pointed to the one with the best track record.

The record books for a cheese competition almost looked a little different until the decision was made to give a DQ to a potential winner. 

Our track record with coffee is a long one. But iced coffee with OJ? That's one we're gonna have to try...but in our own way... 

In a list of the most sleep deprived states, we were surprised to see Georgia at #4. We wondered why that tracks.

For Carmen, her track record with tart cherry juice suggests that it is a great help in getting a good night's sleep.
